Football!

The Patriots won last night, making me the winner of the office weekly football pool. For some reason, I picked the Jaguars over the Titans, but that was the only game I picked wrong. You only have to pick the winner of each game, but usually I just get around 10-11 right. It's also the first time I've won in about 2 years. So, I get $40. Go me!

As is the office tradition, I treated everyone to Einstein's bagels and myself to some strong French Roast coffee.

Yay Mike! Congrats!

And I probably would have picked the Jags myself -- the Titans, even with McNair, haven't been playing fantastic ball this year.

Congratulations!

So how far do the winnings go after you buy the bagels and coffee? Does anyone ever say "screw you guys" and keep the cash for themselves?

I love a good cup of French Roast -- in fact, I'm enjoying some now. But I must not be a caffeine addict, as it took me three days this past weekend to figure out that my mother-in-law drinks decaf. I was wondering why my usual two cups in the morning weren't giving me the shakes.

The bagels and coffee came out to about $18.50, leaving a little over $20 for me. Maybe tomorrow I'll get that haircut.

Sometimes people take the money and do things like donate it to a charity like Toys for Tots. Then you're left without breakfast, AND you can't bitch about it, because, logically, you hate children.
